To disrupt Japanese supplies destined for the Burma front, more than 80 heavy bombers of Strategic Air Force, Eastern Air Command, flew across the Indian Ocean, March 19, 1945 in the longest raid they had accomplished to that date. When the crews returned from their mission some of them had been in the air for 17½ hours and had flown 2,500 miles. While U.S.A.A.F. B-24 bombers attacked a series of targets south of Chumphon in the Gulf of Siam, R.A.F. Liberators attacked the heavily used railway sidings at Na Nien, eight miles west of Chumphon, in Siam. Some of the aircraft which went in to attack from as low as 400ft. saw prisoners of war waving to them as they passed over the isthmus. The whole sidings were covered by the attack and many railway buildings were left on fire. Whilst one part of the sidings was completely burnt out. Trains were set on fire and a large oil fire started. Not content with this devastating attack, some of the aircraft flew another 50 miles further south and strafed locomotives on the Singapore rail route.
